Life After Prison by Silencieux

Chapter 193

After what happened today, Edward finally realized he could not count on Felicia and Megan to persuade Diane. Not when the Shanahans were expecting Severin to get along with Mister Henry and maintained a good relationship with the Longhorns.

Diane had explicitly said that she would never give him a chance too. If that was the case, there was only one option left if he want to have Diane - kill Severin. Once Severin died, he would take the opportunity to console Diane when Diane was heartbroken and gained her affection.

Jada, Easton, and Lucy were thrilled to hear that. They had been desiring to kill Severin but they did not have the power to do so. The reason they were seeking help from Edward was they hoped Edward would do it. They would only rejoice once Severin is dead.

"Mister Edward, you're right. Without Severin in the picture, everything will be solved. Diane would surely fall in love with you!" Easton said quickly.

Lucy also shared her opinion. "We women know each other the most. Most likely, Diane chooses to be together with Severin because of her daughter. She doesn't actually have much feelings for him. The kid is just a product of their one-night stand. Once Severin is dead, Diane doesn't have any other choices. Even if she does, you are the best choice!"

Easton nodded. "Hell yeah! You are the only son and the only heir to your family. You're handsome and a gentleman. Without Severin in the picture, even an idiot knows it is better to choose you!" Edward thought of it and said, "But we can't do it so obviously. If Diane knew I was the one who did it, I won't get her heart when Severin is dead. So I need to hire an assassin!"

"An assassin?" Easton was stunned but not for long.

His eyes brightened up. "You have the contact?"

Edward smiled. "Haha. I have a bodyguard who knows a friend from a killer organization. The killer organization is very reliable. But the only bad thing about it is their fees are very expensive!" "Geez, it's just money. It's nothing to you." Easton smiled and filled up his wine glass. He raised the glass and prepared to toast with Edward.

However, Edward scoffed. "Wait a minute. You guys come to me because you want Severin dead. So you guys should be the ones who pay for the fee. I already did my part by contacting the killer organization."

Easton's mouth twitched. He was speechless. "How stingy can he be? Does he really need to do

this?

Jada did not say anything because she knew Edward was not a good person either. She was however surprised to see Edward was still thinking of taking advantage of them when he was obviously one of the people who dread to see Severin die.

She smiled and filled up her glass too before raising it. "It's a small matter. Not a big deal. Just tell us how much it is. After all, Easton and I are the ones asking for help from you. It doesn't matter if we need to pay to have Severin dead!"

"Yes, yes, yes! That's right. Miss Jada, what about we split the fees in half? If it's too expensive, I don't think I can afford it!" Easton nodded and suggested that.

He was just a normal businessman. The Stones were a third-tier upper-class family. If Jada decided to ask him to pay by himself, he had no choice but to be a fathead. Since it was inevitable that he had to pay the least he could do was get Jada to pay half of the fee.

Jada smiled and understood what Easton was trying to say. She replied, "Sure. Let's toast!"

They raised their glasses and made a toast.

After that, Edward continued, "Severin is not weak, A normal assassin is not going to be able to kill him. We need to hire at least a higher rank assassin. I know the assassin in the killer organization is ranked by their stars. Those who have more stars are more powerful. Of course, more expensive too!"

He paused a while before continuing, "I think we should hire a three stars assassin. What do you guys think?"

Easton frowned. "How-how much will it cost?"

Edward stretched out two fingers and said, "This price!"

Easton frowned again. "Thirty thousand dollars?"
